City Island came as a surprise to me! Surprising good! I enjoyed the play with the interactions within Andy's family and his secret ambition!

Nice home video
enjoyed it

Andy Garcia is great!

(read more) A slight premise (a dysfunctional family unable to be honest with each other are brought together by an ex-con who turns out to be...) which could easily have been wrecked by poor casting is brought to life by excellent, empathetic performances by Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies. There are a few bum notes (a wince-inducing turn by Emily Mortimer as an ever-so-English aspiring actress and a cringeworthy scene where Garcia over-emotes as an amateur actor under-emoting to win a role) but it's all likeable enough, particularly when they all stop shouting and start listening to each other.

Realy GREAT film....I recommend it to everyone....

Funny and charming. great job by the writer-director Raymond de Felitta.

This was a true gem at the Tribeca Film Festival. Very funny, smart and a scene stealing Robert De Niro impression by Andy Garcia. This was truely a fantastic film about a comedy of errors.
